Adding @ngx-universal/state-transfer to your project (SystemJS)

Add map for @ngx-universal/state-transfer in your systemjs.config ```javascript '@ngx-universal/state-transfer': 'nodemodules/@ngx-universal/state-transfer/bundles/state-transfer.umd.min.js' ```

app.server.module configuration

Import ServerStateTransferModule using the mapping '@ngx-universal/state-transfer' and append ServerStateTransferModule.forRoot({...}) within the imports property of app.server.module (considering the app.server.module is the server module in Angular Universal application). ```TypeScript ... import { ServerStateTransferModule, StateTransferService } from '@ngx-universal/state-transfer'; ... @NgModule({ imports:
BrowserModule.withServerTransition({
appId: 'my-app-id'
}),
ServerModule,
ServerStateTransferModule.forRoot(),
AppModule
, ... bootstrap: AppComponent }) export class AppServerModule { constructor(private readonly stateTransfer: StateTransferService) { } ngOnBootstrap = () => {
this.stateTransfer.set('test_key', JSON.stringify({'value': 'test'}));
this.stateTransfer.inject();
} } ```

app.browser.module configuration

Import BrowserStateTransferModule using the mapping '@ngx-universal/state-transfer' and append BrowserStateTransferModule.forRoot({...}) within the imports property of app.browser.module (considering the app.browser.module is the browser module in Angular Universal application). ```TypeScript ... import { BrowserStateTransferModule } from '@ngx-universal/state-transfer'; ... @NgModule({ imports:
BrowserModule.withServerTransition({
appId: 'my-app-id'
}),
BrowserStateTransferModule.forRoot(),
AppModule
, ... bootstrap: LayoutMainComponent }) export class AppBrowserModule { } ```

app.module configuration

Import HttpTransferModule using the mapping '@ngx-universal/state-transfer' and append HttpTransferModule.forRoot({...}) within the imports property of app.module (considering the app.module is the core module in Angular application). ```TypeScript ... import { HttpTransferModule } from '@ngx-universal/state-transfer'; ... @NgModule({ imports:
BrowserModule,
HttpTransferModule.forRoot(),
...
, ... bootstrap: AppComponent }) export class AppModule { ... } ```
:+1: So good! @ngx-universal/state-transfer will now transfer the state from the server platform to the browser
platform.

Usage

StateTransferService has the following methods:
  • initialize(state: Map<string, any>): initializes the STATE using an existing Map<string, any>
  • get(key: string): gets some object from STATE, by key
  • set(key: string, value: any): puts some object to STATE
  • inject(): injects the STATE inside a <script> block (between the <head>...</head> tags)
The following example shows how to read the STATE value transferred from the
server platform to the browser platform, using the configuration above.

app.browser.module

```TypeScript ... import { BrowserStateTransferModule, DEFAULTSTATEID } from '@ngx-universal/state-transfer'; ... @NgModule({ imports:
BrowserModule.withServerTransition({
appId: 'my-app-id'
}),
BrowserStateTransferModule.forRoot(),
AppModule
, ... bootstrap: LayoutMainComponent }) export class AppBrowserModule { constructor() {
// get `STATE` value (injected by the server platform)
let stateValue = undefined;
const win: any = window;
if (win && win[DEFAULT_STATE_ID])
stateValue = win[DEFAULT_STATE_ID];
// do something with the value acquired
// whatever you want ...
} } ```
